You really need to learn it - phpldapadmin is capable of creating any
entries you want but it won't cover for your lack of understanding the
methodology. My experience is very clear on this...you need to learn the
cli tools, ldapadd/ldapmodify/ldapsearch and when you get them down,
LDAP is easy. Especially because you can manually test what your
applications are doing.
This might help you...
# ldapsearch -x \
-h localhost \
-D 'uid=craig,ou=People,dc=azapple,dc=com' \
-W \
'(uid=craig)'
Enter LDAP Password:
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <> with scope sub
# filter: (uid=craig)
# requesting: ALL
#
# craig, People, azapple.com
